    Tai Sing Loo (1886–1971) grew up in Honolulu with two brothers and three sisters in an area that is now Foster Botanical Garden. His photography career began in 1908 when he went to work for an art shop in Honolulu. In 1918, he took a job with the U.S. Navy, eventually becoming Pearl Harbor’s official photographer. There, he pioneered the practice of photographing ships so they appeared to be framed by palm trees.
